The estate

Caves d'Esclans identifies the finest vines and best grapes within Château d'Esclans, while also working with carefully selected local growers. Its aim is to obtain the highest quality grapes and wines regardless of its sourcing (growers or estate-owned). To this end, close, privileged relationships have been built with highly committed winegrowers, fulfilling the promise of supplying grapes from vines farmed with the same high standards as those set since 2006 by Château d'Esclans.
